ABOUT US
About Timwia Welcome to Timwia, an EU-based curator of vintage luxury watches and your trusted partner in the search for truly exceptional timepieces. With an extensive dealer network spanning Europe and Asia and carefully curated stock ready for immediate delivery, we bring the world's finest vintage watches directly to collectors who appreciate both history and craftsmanship.
Our Story Timwia was born from a simple belief: every fine watch deserves a next chapter on the wrist of someone who appreciates its history as much as its craftsmanship. What started as a private collection soon evolved into a professional boutique when word spread about the care we devote to sourcing, inspecting, and restoring each piece. Today, collectors across Europe rely on us for rare Rolex sports models, elegant Cartier tanks, and hidden-gem chronographs from the golden age of mechanical watchmaking—many of which we keep in stock for immediate acquisition.
